Lasagna Dinner

Thank you. Thank you! Thank you! The donations are wonderful this weekend and I thank you for your generous support! Thank you Bruce Daley! Stephanie Crawford donated $26 today, a pretty sweet number! Steph was a key factor in my decision to run the marathon. She said, if you're considering it all, go for it! Thank you to Tracey Sanford as well for your donation today!

This evening, I prepared a Lasagna dinner. My parents and I drove out to Milford, MA to visit with Molly, Josh and little Elizabeth and enjoy dinner with them. Anyone will let you in his or her home if you bring dinner, a good trick of mine. I also tricked my family into enjoying a marathon meal. I don't mind eating pasta and lasagna leftovers all week long, but it's easier if I can make a whole lasagna and share it with someone. I squeeze in my lasagna meal and I can enjoy sensible variety for the rest of the week. Hint Hint, Just ask Me and I will make a lasagna dinner for you! I am free on Sundays and Tuesdays.

That reminds me, I have decided that the steak Burrito with rice is my official dinner before the long run. To date, I have enjoyed burritos at Chipotle and Acapulco’s. This blog will also be dedicated to my 2009 Burrito Tour!! On Friday night, my goal was a burrito for dinner. I ventured out with Carolyn Cross and Julia Smith for post work drinks and dinner. By drinks, I mean I had one beer and that was one too many. I drink a lot of water, but one beer can really dehydrate me. Phew, I need to be more dedicated to the state of hydrated. Ha! It's a struggle every Friday! We ended up at the Cheesecake Factory so I had pasta instead. It was delicious, but the burrito is the meal for me and now I know that.
